How can an anarchist community be moderated by someone spreading right-wing propaganda?

@transformerfan69

I’m referring to @altair222@beehaw.org sharing articles like Iran schoolgirls poisoned as “some people” seek to stop education for girls, Iranian official says. The article exaggerates a few isolated incidents to paint a grim picture of every schoolgirl’s life in Iran. I already know the west is going to give the worst possible impression about the news from Iran, so why would you share it? Do you want everyone to see the country from the lenses of the west? Is that what anarchism is about, division and fear-mongering?

Allowing this person and whoever modded him to remain as mod on any community only serves to reduce the credibility and integrity of the instance as a whole.

Edit: nevermind, I hadn’t noticed the community is from another instance.
